oh, yeah. well again... that's not specificly the reason in the story though is it? It is the reason given at the time. I think maybe the annual infers it, that is why I want to read it again (or for the first couple issues of Under the Red Hood, for the first time) to make sure, cause I can't remember.

Some other book gave us a bs reason and that was it. No reason for it was given as part of the story and when a guy being back from the dead is the thrust of your plot, it's not a big ask to give us a reason why. The story dipped into IC for the sole reason of an ass-pull resolution and nothing else.
The presence of reality altering super-teens from a line-wide crossover in what was previously a relatively grounded and self-contained story jarred me out of it.

Why don’t we know about the first super heroes of the Marvel Universe? Leonardo Da Vinci, Imhotep, Sir Issac Newton, Nostradamus and Galileo are among the members of the Brotherhood of the Shield and have saved us all countless times. What events did they set in motion that still affect the Marvel U today? Do not miss the book that will be talked about for the next ten years. Rated T …$2.99

@Zero: so just to be clear... a book that came out several months later pulled you out a book you were enjoying. (The last issue of Under the Red Hood came out in August of 2005, Infinite Crisis began in October)
